Poems of 1820

'Poems of 1820' is a great reminder that some achieve greatness at an early age.

John Keats was 24 when this collection of poems was published and it is wild, ecstatic, sensuous and thrilling.

Both - and much more in-between - appear in this collection, which is a poignant reminder of what the literary world missed when he died at the age of 25.

This is ideal reading for fans of the poets Lord Byron and Percy Bysshe Shelley.

John Keats (1795-1821) was one of a remarkable generation of Romantic poets, alongside Lord Byron and Percy Bysshe Shelley.
